Two decades ago @BernieSanders knew what was coming. He had already identified the strategy the Republicans were going to use, and he was spot on.
His politics have never changed. He’s as consistent in his beliefs and understanding today as he ever was.

If you think someone dancing with you at an event means they aren’t racist—or won’t vote against your interests—you need a deeper understanding of how power works.
I’ve seen a lot of conversations about race relations in Louisiana that are rooted in feelings instead of voting records. If someone dances with you on Saturday, then votes to cut funding for your schools on Monday, they’re not your ally.
We should never confuse social interactions with political solidarity. If your vote helps elect people who weaken Black representation or reduce funding for Black communities and projects, you’re supporting financial discrimination—whether you intend to or not.
Speaking on the @globalblackeconomicforum stage at @essencefest.
If people are going to take your tax dollars, you should have a say in who spends them and how they’re spent.
Share if you care. 🦾
Four-star General Donahue who resigned after pressure tied to Pete Hegseth’s leadership. This is the respect he was shown as he left his home and his post.
Dr. Jawanza Kunjufu (1953–2025) spent a lifetime fighting for Black education, Black excellence, and the future of Black children. His words criticized broken systems and reminded generations that education is a tool for liberation. Rest in power. 🕊️
Ex-Trump supporter: "I did believe that the election was stolen. I believed that the rioters were patriots until I switched off Fox News and started getting news and information from other places. That's when it finally hit."
JB Pritzker: “The White House is intentionally breaking our American system of government so they can rebuild it in their own image. They’re taking food and medicine away from families in poverty. They’ve shut down cancer research and HIV prevention. They’ve eliminated drinking water and clean air regulations and upended the lives o veterans. They’ve deported Black and brown people while they’re giving expedited immigration visas to white South Africans”

While Europe is responding to heat waves by buying more air conditioners,
China is deploying infrastructure that cools public space at a fraction of the energy cost.
Rooftops across Shanxi province are fitted with mist nozzles that spray droplets fine enough to evaporate before they hit the ground.
They switch on automatically at 35°C and drop surrounding air temperature by 5 to 8°C within minutes. The same system now runs at bus stops in Chongqing, public squares in Beijing and Wuhan.
The technology is not new. Evaporative cooling is textbook thermodynamics. What is new is that a government decided to fund the rollout at city scale before anyone wrote a policy paper about it.
He was put in prison for 44 years by Karen and her sister. I’m not kidding. Karen. Don’t worry, though, the cops only kept “secret documents” that would have cleared him. But it’s just a few bad apples. #backtheblue
Kevin O’Leary shows that taxpayers pay, investors and corporations profit, they damage the environment, and the public gets screwed again. So the next time someone argues that socialism is bad, play this for them. #DemsUnited
Message for all the Beautiful dark skinned girls: "Be yourself...this world always tells us how we should be, how we should look and they want to define our beauty for us but you're already beautiful. Just be you."
Cariol Horne stopped a fellow cop from choking a handcuffed Black man in 2006. Buffalo PD fired her for it in 2008 just one year before her pension.
She fought for 14 years. In 2021, a judge restored her pension and Buffalo passed “Cariol’s Law,” requiring officers to intervene against excessive force.
Real hero who paid the price but never gave up. Legend. 👏🏾
